A silver mounted Gunong

Thank you gentlemen for your comments!
Jose, while I love these blades, and can tell a good one, I don’t really have a lot of knowledge about dating and the groups who made them. Do you think it’s Maranao because of the blade shape, the mounts, or the okir? Trying to learn!
Thor, the blade is laminated, but it’s fairly low contrast. It is easy to see in person, but hard to capture in photos. The blade was polished when I got it, so I gave it an etch.

Again, thanks to all who commented.

Steve
